Restore Your Smile with Natural-Looking Dental Implants in Tampa
At LAF Dental Studio, we offer dental implants as a long-term, natural-looking solution for patients who are missing one or more teeth. Implants restore both the appearance and function of your smile, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence again.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root. Once healed, a custom-made crown is attached to the implant, creating a natural and stable replacement for the missing tooth.
Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement because they:
- Look and feel like natural teeth
- Prevent bone loss in the jaw
- Restore full chewing power
- Do not affect neighboring teeth
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Permanent & Stable: Implants fuse with your jawbone, offering long-term stability.
- Natural Appearance: Each restoration is carefully crafted to blend with your smile.
- Improved Function: Speak and chew normally without slipping or discomfort.
- Preserves Facial Structure: Prevents the sunken appearance that often follows tooth loss.
Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Ideal candidates for dental implants are individuals with healthy gums and sufficient bone density. If needed, bone grafting may be recommended to strengthen the jaw before implant placement. During your consultation, Dr. Frank Pérez will evaluate your needs and recommend the best treatment plan.
Our Implant Process
- Consultation & Evaluation: Includes dental imaging and personalized planning.
- Implant Placement: A biocompatible post is placed in your jawbone.
- Healing Period: The implant integrates with your bone (osseointegration).
- Restoration: A lifelike crown, bridge, or denture is attached for a complete smile.
